Cliftonville Golf Club was founded in 1911 and is one of Belfast City’s oldest clubs.It is a 9 hole course which presents a serious test of Golf. The Course measures over 6200 yds and features a starting hole nominated twice in BBC NI’s “Toughest Par 3”. This is followed by the superb par four 2nd at over 450 yds. This old lady has other joys awaiting you when you attempt to hit over the river in front of the 5th and 7th greens. This course lies in the shadow of Cavehill with beautifully matured greens full of subtle contours. A hidden gem in the heart of Belfast!

A Brief History of Cliftonville Golf Club
We recently launched a book to mark the 100th anniversary of our Westland Road location. ‘A Brief History of Cliftonville Golf Club’ has been written by Hugh Daly, the Club Captain for 2024. Situated in the shadow of Cavehill, Cliftonville Golf Club was founded in 1911 and is one of Belfast city’s oldest clubs. The origins of the club actually started in an area called ‘Monkeystown’ which is now part of Ballysillan playing fields between the Oldpark Road and Ballysillan Road. It moved to its current site on the Westland Road in May 1924.
“From humble origins in Monkeystown to its current location on the Westland Road, this book chronicles the many people and events that have shaped the club’s identity,” explained Hugh. “Whether you’re a seasoned member or a curious local historian, this book will help you explore the rich history of one of North Belfast’s most cherished golfing institutions.”
The book is available to purchase for £15 in either the golf shop or clubhouse.
